Isokinetic Testing Services with Cost Reduction Technology
Many companies face a continuous challenge to control the ever-increasing costs associated with work-related injuries, including musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) injuries principally caused by a mismatch in workers’ physical abilities and the physical job demands. When hiring for physically demanding jobs, companies seek to avoid these mismatches. That’s where Cost Reduction Technology’s (CRT) isokinetic pre-employment evaluation can be a big help, through an objective measurement of the applicant’s muscle strength and range of motion for the knees, shoulders, and trunk.

Ergonomic Evaluations
Employees have varying physical characteristics. With on-site, ergonomic evaluations from Cedar Valley Occupational Rehab, you can ensure that your employees’ work stations are ergonomically optimized to avoid workplace injuries and boost worker output. We can also design and implement preventative stretching and strengthening programs to address existing conditions and protect against further injuries.
